    I got an English degree.

    Shouldn't that be, "I gots an English degree"?

    D'oh!

  4. Re:What is "super-size"? on New 100GB Optical Disk From Taiwan · · Score: 2

    Well, Super-Size means 40 fluid ounces. How many cubit centimeters is an ounce?

    Episodes IV-VI would just be about the Jedi council sitting around picking their noses.

  8. Re:Xbox Linux on Xbox Price Drops to $200 · · Score: 2

    primary hurdle is getting past the hardware based authorization system

    Huh. I would have thought the primary hurdle would have been getting the Green Screen of Death right, so it would look like a factory X-Box sitting in a Lawyers-R-Us kiosk.

    Just imagine a Beowulf cluster of these!

  10. Re:Best way to increase hard drive performance: on Hard Drive Performance - ATA100 vs ATA133 · · Score: 2

    Rework the width with rails. They screw onto the sides of the HDD, and make it 5.25 inches wide, instead of a pussy 3.5 inches.

  11. Rumors? on Standard C++ Moves Beyond Vapor · · Score: 1
    There are rumors they can compile the Linux kernel too.

    You can do it, too!
  12. Re:pentabytes? on Reaching Beyond Two-Terabyte Filesystems · · Score: 2

  16. Re:Competitive ugrade from Windows makes more sens on Red Hat Takes Aim at SuSE, Mandrake · · Score: 2

    send in your authorized Windows media and key with a purchase of Red Hat Linux and we'll pay you the cost of the Microsoft tax

    Except that, legally, you have to send in your whole PC with the media and Key. You know it's true, Microsoft said so.

    finger...colleagues or employers

    That sounds like a bad idea. Seems like begging for a harrassment suit to me.

  19. Re:How can they be blindsided? on States Drop Planned Presentation of Modular Windows · · Score: 2

    Surely MS can just fly a couple of their marketing people to help fill in the gaps where the demo falls short.

    Or just put together a demo video, and splice extra footage into the gaps where the demo falls short.

  20. A better customer focus? on David Packard Writes HP Epitaph · · Score: 2

    But it is hard to imagine that their leaders can invent something better than what they left behind.

    How about when info about "Cisco chicks" and "Galactic catastrophes" changes from minute to minute for hours after being posted?

  23. Re: Other peoples' reactions on Microsoft's Overlooked Code Theft · · Score: 2

    That's 'cause there's not a "nice troll" moderation option, so we use "insightful" as a stand-in.
